This has now been tested and I can confirm that:
1. If you copy the ploop drive without first snapshotting, it *will* be marked dirty and refuse to mount
2. If you snapshot prior to copying, the backup/dupe *will* be mountable and data is fully intact and restorable
3. You can simply ignore the snapshot files (granted skipping them during backup will mean bandwidth and storage savings). You can simply mount the ploop disk file directly (ignoring the snapshots) or to recover the whole container, edit the XML file and remove the snapshot references.
